[jira] [Created] (HADOOP-12021) Augmenting Configuration to accomodate

Lewis John McGibbney created HADOOP-12021:
---------------------------------------------

             Summary: Augmenting Configuration to accomodate <description>
                 Key: HADOOP-12021
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12021
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: conf
            Reporter: Lewis John McGibbney
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.3.0, 2.8.0


Over on the [common-dev|http://www.mail-archive.com/common-dev%40hadoop.apache.org/msg16099.html] ML I explained a use case which requires me to obtain the value of the Configuration <description> tags.
[~cnauroth] advised me to raise the issue to Jira for discussion.
I am happy to provide a patch so that the <description> values are parsed out of the various XML files and stored, and also that the Configuration class is augmented to provide accessors to accommodate the use case.

I wanted to find out what people think about this one and whether I should check out Hadoop source and submit a patch. If you guys could provide some advice it would be appreciated.
